The new normal...

After last week it is quite obvious that I do not control the weather - 2 day job outside it poured. We move inside and it is some of the nicest / warmest days of the year - sunny and about 70... Go figure.

1/2 of AK is from MN - they said it has been cooking back there as well; hopefully it has cooled off a bit for your visit.... We were in Sault St Marie and Marquette earlier this summer was only in the 80's.

I have been away from home working most of summer; but last time I was home the old thermometer crept to 39 degrees.. I do not know how you all do the heat - not for me. We'll have snow in 6 weeks!!!!!

My mom use to travel through the Sault locks as a kid in the summers because my grandpa was a great lakes ship captain back before the Edmund Fitzgerald sunk in 1975. I was in Duluth and got video of a 1000 footer going through the port under the lift bridge. I'll try and post it when I get back on wi-fi.

Re: Job Photos

I was driving in an old neighborhood today and saw some small townhomes that caught my eye, and realized I built these in 1979. Here they are along with some other photos I took today from other jobs I'm working on.

You were going to try a LEED spec, are you going forward with it?
